Pretentious, moi?

Hand to god, this is true .... I know a lad who's name is Drew Peacock.

He's just found out he can change it by deed poll for about 30 quid, and he's going to do it.

What WERE his parents thinking ?
He's in his late twenties, and he's had enough ! I can see why !

:lol:

Presumably it was him who shortened 'Andrew' to 'Drew', though.

Why doesn't he just start calling himself 'Andy'?

 

[Jenx]

Drew is a Scottish name Dan ... its not shortened from Andrew... thats his 'full' name ! 8)

When I left school I worked in a bread factory and was amazed at how popular "Judy Fitter" was; she was always being paged. Well you can guess who they were really paging #-o

I don't get it.

Duty fitter I think.

What's a 'Duty'?

:wink:

[Digit]

The one on standby for that shift, the tannoy op would not necessarily know who was on duty during that shift. Hence 'Duty'.

Roy.

Ahhhh, thanks Roy. I am a bit disappointed though. I thought there was some hilarious joke in there that I was missing

I thought we were talking along the lines of a 'long stand' or 'tartan paint'.

One I have used over the Tannoy is "Mike Hunt".

 

[MikeG.]

Mike Hunt used to be the name of the groundsman at Lords (might still be for all I know now). He did get called over the tannoy quite a lot!

[TrimTheKing]

Sorry Andy, but listen again and re-read Dan's link. His name is Master MATE.

There is even a retraction in there from the Young Guardian, the Blackguards who originated these filthy untruths

Here's another.

I was at Brands Hatch taking people on 'hot laps' to try and interest them in motorsport. Racing drivers have their name on the rear side window of the car, a fellow driver had his name down as **** Hunter, when I came in after my session the team manager mentioned to me that I was being chased by **** hunter for a few laps. I was wondering if he had managed to find a wife called Fanny!
